Hi, Roberts Johnson with Cool Denver Homes. Can you believe all the fires that are going on here in Colorado? Rachel and I were watching the Hayden Fire when the Waldo Canyon fire started. That’s in Colorado Springs close to where Rachel’s parents live. We thought no big deal until yesterday when the winds turned ugly and the fire began to take off. We were in Colorado Springs a week ago for Father’s Day and took a t drive through Garden of the Gods and Manitou Springs. We even went by the Flying W Ranch which is where Rachel held her 1st job. As we listened further, last night the fire got closer and closer to the populated areas. We were sure her parent’s house would not be in the evacuation zone. Then we heard the fire was moving north and the Flying W Ranch was burnt down. Then her parents got the evacuation notice at the same time as they started evacuating the Air Force Academy. We watched on TV houses burn that we had just seen the week before.

You don’t really think about these things until someone you know is in the middle of it. I think we all know of someone or knows someone that is going through this right now.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone affected!

Think of me when you hear some say they have to buy or sell a house and then tell them about me! Then call me and tell me about them!
